The ORCA "digests" organic food waste—up to 2,400 pounds (more than 1 ton) per day. The process is simple: Users drop the food waste into the machine. Then the ORCA's natural micro-organism solution works with water and plastic bio chips to quickly break down the waste. Within 24 hours, this material transforms into earth-friendly water that flows into the ordinary sewage system.

ORCA technology eliminates the need to truck food waste to landfills or remote composting facilities. In one year, an ORCA machine can divert up to 875,000 pounds of food waste from landfill. This means a large reduction in methane gases produced at landfill sites, and fewer Co2 emissions from garbage trucks used to haul waste to landfill. InCanada and the U.S. every year, garbage trucks that haul away food waste burn 1.7 billion gallons of diesel fuel, and food waste adds 106 billion pounds of material to landfill sites.

"Totally Green is honored to receive this award," said Shawn Dym. "It is confirmation that our no-truck organic waste disposal solution is the ideal environmental and economic solution for all hotels with food service operations. The award raises awareness of the benefits for hotels that adopt our solution. "
